About the opencv tutorial and something called the "PathEditor"

C++
1

I am reading the opencv tutorial here: OpenCV: Installation in Windows
I followed the tutorial but can’t understand what they mean by the “PathEditor”, especially at the bottom of the page they tell you to put this var: “%OPENCV_DIR%\bin” into the “PathEditor” but where is this path editor, in visual studio ?

they link to an utility that made things easier back in Windows 7.

in Windows 10 onwards (or even earlier), the system dialog for editing environment variables has made it easier to edit such variables that are lists of paths (PATH is such a variable).

you can safely ignore that “patheditor”.

this has always been there:

and this was introduced after Windows 7:

All right, thank you.
